Nearby Croyde Spots and Their Hours
If you feel like venturing out, Croyde offers several eateries with reliable opening times. The Beachside Deli serves breakfast from 8:00 am to 11:00 am and lunch until 3:00 pm, perfect for a quick bite after a surf session. Seaside Grill opens at 12:00 pm for lunch and stays busy until 10:00 pm, famous for its charcoal‑grilled sardines. For sweet cravings, the Cove Café runs 9:00 am‑2:00 pm and again 4:00 pm‑8:00 pm, offering homemade cakes and a strong tea selection.
Most local spots close on Sundays after lunch, so plan a brunch or early dinner if you’re traveling that day. You can also call ahead; many places adjust hours during the off‑season, but they’ll usually stick to the schedule above during the busy summer months.
Quick tip: keep an eye on the weather forecast. On rainy days, some restaurants may shorten dinner service, but Ocean's Reach stays open as long as the kitchen team can keep the ovens running.
When you arrive at the retreat, the welcome booklet includes a printable table of all dining times, plus contact numbers for each venue. If you have special dietary needs, let us know at check‑in – we’ll coordinate with the kitchen to make sure you get suitable meals during the listed hours.
Planning a day trip? Pair a morning hike with an early breakfast at the café, then head to the Beachside Deli for lunch. Finish with a sunset dinner at Ocean's Reach’s terrace; the sea view makes the 6:30 pm start feel like a celebration.
Bottom line: knowing the exact dining hours saves you from the classic “I’m starving but the kitchen’s closed” moment. Use this guide, check the booklet, and you’ll spend less time waiting and more time enjoying Croyde’s coastline, surf, and great food.
